Twenty-One Things, Anthony Robbins


ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.. 

TWO ... Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. 

THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want. 

FOUR . When you say, 'I love you ,' mean it. 

FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.. 

SIX ... Be engaged at least six months before you get married. 

SEVEN.. Believe in love at first sight. 

EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dream. People who don't have dreams don't have much. 

NINE . Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.

TEN. ...  In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.  

ELEVEN.  Don't judge people by their relatives.  

TWELVE.  Talk slowly but think quickly. 

THIRTEEN.  When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?' 

FOURTEEN.  Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.. 


FIFTEEN.  Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze.  

SIXTEEN.  When you lose, don't lose the lesson! 

SEVENTEEN.  Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and responsibility for all your actions. 

EIGHTEEN..  Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.. 

NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it. 

TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone.. The caller will hear it in your voice. 

TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.

Struggles

Struggles. We all have them. My (latest) favorite saying is, "We all have our things." And for me, my "thing" is wanting to eat to fill the emptiness inside. And not like carrots and apples and good for you stuff. Oh, No! The really bad for you stuff. I crave sugary treats. I have been doing so well with my eating lately and have been exercising for the last few weeks as well, but last night nearly took me down. I was struggling with wanting to run--not walk--into the kitchen and make myself a bowl of cereal with some Craisins or a fruit smoothie or a PB&J. I prayed instead. Almost to the point of tears, I begged God for this to pass. I ate some carrots. I drank some more water. I contemplated some tea. I got out my swiss ball and did some wall squats as I watched TV. I had already been out for a walk earlier with ML, too, but I felt like I was coming out of my skin. OBSESSING about eating something. It wasn't food that I wanted, though. I wanted to feed t

Sometimes, Reality is Worse

What if I told you that Joseph/SAM was created to hurt me? Made up to be everything I'd ever want and more? What if I told you everything I believed and knew him to be was an enormous hoax? All because someone wanted to give me what she felt I had given her. All that she felt I had taken from her. I have to admit that while people have hurt me before with their actions and decisions it has been for their own personal and selfish reasons. Usually not with malicious intent.  There has to be a lot of pain and hurt within a person to invest so much into the creation of a fictional character. Someone who would really take the time to know me. Someone who would enlist others to make the ruse real. To call me on the phone, to send me cards from the web, to pick out a card and leave it at a bar where the bartender who gave it to me told me how cute my guy was, to create a Facebook account with pictures and friends, to bring an ex-wife into the mix, pictures from the desert and your trave

Join the Navy, See the World!

There are things we want in life and make happen, but they don't always happen as we'd planned or imagined. My dad had gone to Ohio University in Athens, OH on a wrestling scholarship. I, too, wanted to go to OU, but since he'd dropped out and it had a reputation as a huge party school, it was going to be a tough sell. So, I did my homework and sell I did. At the time (1990), OU was one of the top 10 colleges for Communications in the U.S. That was the degree I wanted and I wanted to go to OU to get my degree. I graduated early and during the time between my acceptance to OU and the College of Communications and pre-college, I had become further enamored with marine life and sharks specifically and wanted to change my major to Marine Biology which at OU was actually a Zoology degree. The girl tried to talk me out of changing my major because it was so hard to get into the College of Communication and if I left, I would have to reapply and hope for the best in my junior year
